The Basics

  • Kings Cross is part of the inner-city approx 2km east of the Sydney central business district. The area is infamous in Australia as being a red-light district with numerous strip clubs and "girlie" bars along Darlinghurst Road. It is also known for its Neon signs and advertising posters, the most famous being the iconic Coca-Cola sign. It is often referred to by Sydneysiders by the affectionate colloquialism "the Cross".
  • Kings Cross is not a great place to run around, but there are a lot of hotels and tourists around, so its likely you could be staying there.
  • Many females report that they feel nervous running alone through the Cross even during day-time.
  • However, Kings Cross is located close to the CBD and a number of runs pass thorugh here.
